Over the past eight years, I have learned a lot from my experiences with running, both what works and what doesn’t. These experiences have allowed me to listen to my body. Due to my PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), sports have become an important outlet for me. At the same time, I try to help as many people as possible by giving them advice, so that they can also benefit from what I have learned.

"Giving up is not an option"
As an athlete, I am always looking for products that can support my performance and improve my recovery. The Isotonic Drink from Etixx is the perfect product for me. It not only has the ideal balance of carbohydrates and electrolytes my body needs to stay hydrated and energized during intense training, but it also tastes wonderfully refreshing. What I particularly appreciate is that it is quickly absorbed by my body, allowing me to maintain my energy levels and prevent cramps and fatigue.

Athletics
I am Stijn Fincioen and I have been doing athletics for over 25 years now. In addition to being an athlete, I am also a ‘Trainer A’ [top-level trainer] for middle distance/long distance. I now pass on my experience and knowledge to my athletes at Olympic Brugge and the West-Vlaamse Alliantie (WVA) I was already there when Etixx was launched and I feel particularly good with these products. They provide good support alongside my daily diet. In 2019, I became an Etixx ambassador. I am happy that, as an ambassador, I can share my experiences with other athletes so that they can prepare themselves optimally according to their personal goals.
